Misuse of the battery can cause hazards such as leakage, overheating,
explosion, etc. The battery should be inserted correctly with regard to polarity (+
and -) marked on the battery and the camera.
Battery performance may be temporarily hindered in low temperatures, but will
recover in normal temperatures.
Keep a spare battery on hand for replacement convenience when shooting
outdoors or while traveling.
If the built-in flash is used continuously, the battery may become warm, but it
does not mean that the battery is faulty; it is one of the battery's characteristics.
Replace the batteries at the same time. Do not mix battery brands, type or an old
battery with a new one. It may cause explosion or overheating.
Always confirm that the camera is working properly when the camera has not
been used for a long time, or before important occasions (weddings, trips, etc.).
PENTAX is not responsible for consequential damages (costs incurred for
photography, lost profits, etc.) arising from failure of this product.
Do not clean the product with organic solvents such as thinner, alcohol, or benzene.
Do not subject to high temperatures or high humidity. Do not leave the camera in
a vehicle, as the temperature can get very high.
Do not store the camera with preservatives and chemicals. Storage in high
temperatures and high humidity can cause molding. Remove from case and
store in a dry and well-ventilated location.
This camera is not waterproof, and cannot be used in the rain or where the
camera could get wet.
Do not subject the camera to strong vibrations, shocks, or pressure. Use a cushion
to protect the camera from vibrations of motorcycles, automobiles, or ships.
The temperature range for camera use is 0°C to 40°C.
The LCD display may appear black under high temperatures, but will return to
normal as temperatures normalize.
The LCD display may respond more slowly at low temperatures. This is due to
liquid crystal properties, and is not a fault.
Periodic inspections are recommended every one to two years to maintain high
performance.
Sudden temperature changes will cause condensation on the inside and outside
of the camera. Place the camera in your bag or a plastic bag, retrieving the
camera after decreasing the temperature difference.
Avoid contact with garbage, mud, sand, dust, water, toxic gases, or salts. These
could cause a camera breakdown. Wipe dry any rain or water drops on the camera.
Use a blower or lens brush to remove dust accumulated on the lens or viewfinder.
Never use a spray blower for cleaning as it may damage the lens or viewfinder screen.
See “Precautions When Using a CF Card” (p.151) for details on the compact
flash memory card (CF Card).
Please do not press forcefully on the LCD monitor. This could cause breakage or
malfunction.
